This routine always casts a gloomy cloud over the day. To combat these feelings, I turn to the solace of plants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Many people consider plants a way out for them from the stresses of life. Pandemic quarantine nurtured plant passion. Indoor plants and outdoor gardens flourished as people sought solace and connection with nature from the comfort of home. Meanwhile, It&#8217;s been difficult to achieve my dream of an indoor jungle because of cats. Most of those plants are toxic, and my cats like to chew on plants!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-450x600.jpg 450w, https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-850x1133.jpg 850w, https:\/\/athoob.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_5895-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/giyplants.com\/houseplants\/colocasia-pharaohs-mask-care\/\">Colocasia Pharaoh\u2019s Mask<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Nevertheless, I decided to uplift my spirits by purchasing three plants from <a href=\"https:\/\/lushstudio.shop\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/lushstudio.shop\">Lush Studio<\/a>.
